Twilight of Itaewon | Taekook ✔

6. Enigmas of Life

Illegal sleep is the best, no offense. Like sleeping in an ongoing physics class, in between a conference about the stock market crash, and in the bedroom which was under investigation where entry was restricted by the police.

Jeongguk opened his eyes realizing that he skipped his jogging and sat on the bed. He tried to recall the things that happened the last night. The calming lavender enveloped him and he smells like someone. He found himself satisfied with sleep and peace.

After collecting his things, locked the flat and walked to the parking lot. He avoided eye contact with everyone around him. After 35 minutes of the ride, he reached his flat and freshen up for his daily routine.

The case and 221 are no more a nightmare to him. He found the silver lines in the dark clouds but he didn't stop searching. His target was rainbows.

Jeongguk was in no mood to go anywhere, and that is when he got a message from Yeonjun that they reached 221. With a groan, he stood up and walked to the parking lot after locking his flat.

He scrolled through his verified Twitter account while sitting in his car. The trendings are is in front of him. His social media life is dumb. It took one year or more for him to update his profile picture.
The officer doesn't even have time to check all of those, but he tries to maintain with the new-gen world.

Being the tough gentleman he is, he never tried to break the frame of his brought-up values. Either he was not interested or he was afraid to do something which hurts his reputation, break values, and destroy his social connection.

After reaching 221, he walked to the staircase but found that the lift was working. But he skipped it and chose the staircase. At 221, he found Yeonjun talking on the phone and Soobin sitting on the corner of the step.

Yeonjun hung up the call and they entered the house and settled to start their day.

"Okay, now just do one thing... " Jeongguk stood up from the couch and walked.

"Sort out those common points about the case, about his life, about - about him.

Let's check all the testimonials, details everything about him, and find what are the most repeated and inevitable points of his life. "

Jeongguk said while playing with a pen in his hands. Yeonjun was ready with files and Soobin with notepad.

" Okay, I will start, sir," said Soobin.

" friends less than 3 "

" Normal and happy life " - Yeonjun.

" Bright student " -Jeongguk.

" Night party of 30- 40 people " - Soobin.

" Single"- Yeonjun.

" Away from the crowd" - Jeongguk.

" Book Holic" - Soobin.

" No suspicious things" - Yeonjun.

" Introvert " - Jeongguk.

" he can't do something like this" - finally said Yeonjun. Three of them smiled at each other. They were done with this. Every point turns out against them. But no one believes it too.

Jeongguk oh so badly wanted to look at the photo on the wall. But he stopped himself. He Knows, once he let his eyes linger there, he could not take it back.
